Just watched 2000 UW vs Erickson's OSU thugs on UWTV. Holy shit the beavs were good. This Beaver team was a field goal against UW away from a national title, the same team that hadn't been ranked in 30 years. Nobody was going to beat this team had they got past UW (Nasty defense, potent offense).
Fuck, Ochocinco was just one of three very good WR's. Simonton, Pat McCall(who was better than Simonton, which says a lot), Martin Mauer at TE and those fucking wicked DE's.
Erickson's beavs beat down Notre Dame in the fiesta bowl like they were a JV team (basically 50-0) That's a national title team Erickson WAS a good coach, and that team was good enough for a split vote, right along with #3 Washington., who got fucked by east coast bias!

National title team? They lost to UW.

I once had similar thoughts about Erickson....... until I travelled all the way to Miami to watch the Whammy. I believe Erickson as a college coach moved around a lot because he typically couldn't recruit worth spit, while he could do a good job with somebody else's talent....... such as Riley's at Oregon State.

Oregon State was loaded in 2000. That was a hell of a game. You are right about nobody being able to beat them if they got past UW. They were nasty!

well the reason I brought it up is because Erickson took an OSU team that hadn't been ranked in 30 years, to a BCS bowl and a field goal miss from a national title. NO FUCKING WAY ERICKSON WOULD BE 7-6 IN YEAR 4, let alone year 3.
We use one 0-12 season as an excuse for sucking 4 years later. Good Lord, imagine losing for 30 straight years, and then going to a BCS bowl in year two? That's coaching. We got to the Las Vegas bowl in year 4. Yippie fucking skippie Sark. -
UW finished #3 in the country Damone. You were prolly playing D&D with your band-geek buddies back then. UW was pretty good and worthy of NC votesMikeDamone said:National title team? They lost to UW.

Is having a band-geek buddy as important as having a Comcast guy?

Both Washington and OSU lost conference games that year. Neither deserved any first place votes. Oklahoma was 13-0. Stop being a dumbass.
